    Fast and easy zero-dep random number generation. (by al-jshen)

  • I just released alea! It's a crate for generating random numbers. The main goal of this crate is simplicity. Zero dependencies, small code size, and best of all, no more &mut rng everywhere (just call alea::f64() for an f64). alea uses Wyrand as its PRNG, and it's really fast.
